Supersized Mario commands super price

This week, Japanese shopping site Trend One began offering life-size replicas of Nintendo's most famous plumber. The Mario figure is 155 cm, or a little over five feet tall. According to the site, this is Mario's actual height as given in the games' background story. The product's manufacturer is unspecified, but the advert claims the character likeness is fully licensed from Nintendo. This Super Mario also features a supersized price tag of 248,000 yen (about $2,170), and a superlimited production run of 30 units.
